SIGNON: Creates Sign-On Screen

Many companies like to display a sign-on screen while
their application is loading and initializing. When the
user performs some action indicating that he or she is
ready to begin using the application, the sign-on screen
disappears and the application proceeds as normal.

SIGNON is implemented with a modeless dialog box and some
extra processing in the main message loop. After the main
window is created and displayed, a modeless dialog
(usually containing the company name and copyright
information) appears in the main window. The main message
loop then watches for any action (for example, mouse
clicks, keystrokes, and menu accesses) indicating that the
user is ready to work. You can also create a timer to
remove the sign-on screen after a certain amount of time
(say, 5 seconds).

SIGNON was built and tested under Microsoft(R) Windows(TM)
version 3.1, but will also run under Windows version 3.0.
